Flexibility by Design:
Three Pump Models, One Common Bowl Assembly
The t hree dif f erent pump models in t he vert ical t urbine line
have one t hing in common t he hydraulic design of t he
pump bowl assembly. Using st at e-of -t he-art t echniques in
t urbine pump design, Goulds vert ical t urbine line covers a
wide range of hydraulic condit ions t o meet virt ually every
pumping service in t he indust ry wit h opt imum ef f iciency.
Goulds f lexibilit y of design allows t he use of a wide
range of mat erials and design f eat ures t o meet t he
cust om requirement s of t he user. No mat t er what t he

Pump Bowl Assembly
The bowl assembly is t he heart of t he vert ical t urbine
pump. The impeller and dif f user t ype casing are designed
t o deliver t he head and capacit y t hat your syst em requires
in t he most ef f icient way possible. The f act t hat t he vert ical
t urbine pump can be mult i-st aged allows maximum
f lexibilit y bot h in t he init ial pump select ion and in t he
event t hat f ut ure syst em modif icat ions require a change in
t he pump rat ing. Submerged impellers allow pump t o be
st art ed wit hout priming.
A variet y of mat erial opt ions allows t he select ion of a
pump best suit ed f or even t he most severe services. The
many bowl assembly opt ions available assure t hat t he
vert ical t urbine pump sat isf ies t he users needs f or saf e,
ef f icient , reliable and maint enance-f ree operat ion.

Design Options and Features Provide Important
Cost Savings Benefits
Available as an opt ion on all ITT A-C Pump wet -pit pumps, t he
pullout design reduces maint enance cost s and downt ime as
t he discharge piping remains undist urbed when removing t he
pump.
The unique hydraulic t hrust relief design (achieved by opening
an area behind t he impeller t o t he out side of t he pump) result s
in low t hrust values f rom maximum f low t o shut of f head. This
reduces t he cost of t he driver by reducing t he size of t he
required t hrust bearing.
To reach high pressure heads t he pumps can be arranged f or
up t o a t hree st age conf igurat ion. ITT A-C Pump s advanced
